Product Description
The Serenade No. 12 for winds in C minor, K. 388/384a, was written by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart in 1782 or 1783. The work is sometimes called "Nachtmusik". In 1787, Mozart transcribed the work for string quintet.
The serenade is scored for 2 oboes, 2 clarinets, 2 horns, and 2 bassoons.
I have added 2 flutes, so it isnow scored for winddectet (double wind quintet)
There are four movements:
Allegro, C minor, sonata form
Andante, E-flat major, sonata form
Menuet & Trio, C minor, Trio in C major, ternary form
Allegro, C minor, ends in C major, variation form with the fifth variation (in E-flat major) augmented.
The minuet is a canon. The oboes carry the melody with the bassoons answering one bar later. The trio is also canonic with the response to the melody played upside down.
The finale is a set of variations containing a central episode in E-flat major and a coda that turns to C major near the end.
